The Painted Way's Limited Edition Wall Calendar:
The calendar measures 9×14 inches and is held together by one large binder clip. The calendar pages are loose and one-sided, so you can easily crop the piece and its name into a 9×9 print and frame your favorites (or all of them). At the end of the year, you have 12 images to make a grid wall if you so choose!
Muddy Creek Lavender Farm
Muddy Creek Lavender is a small, veteran-owned lavender farm located in Randolph County, North Carolina. They grow 11 varieties of lavender that are used to create their handmade products in small batches. Our products include lavender culinary items, lavender-centric bath & body products, and crafts made from farm-grown botanicals. In spring, they have lavender plants, flower seeds, and tubers available for the home gardener.
In summer and fall, they have fresh flower bouquets. Their mission is to provide quality, naturally-grown lavender products that customers love and to educate them on how to grow and appreciate this wonderful and useful plant.
Be sure to shop their products on the website or visit them in person at one of the many events they attend in the Triad area.
